Instructions

Generously grease the bottom and all sides of the muffin pan with butter.

In a large mixing bowl, add butter and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.

Next add flour, sour cream, eggs, baking soda, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Beat on a low speed until blended. Then beat for another 3 minutes.

Add the batter to the muffin pan only filling the space halfway for each muffin. Set aside for a moment.

In a separate small bowl, mix the cinnamon and sugar. Then generously top the batter with half of the cinnamon and sugar mixture.

Next, add another layer of batter for each muffin.

Lastly, top the batter with the remaining cinnamon and sugar mixture. Bake until the inside of each muffin is still slightly moist (about 27 minutes; use a toothpick to test the middle of the muffin, if the toothpick comes out with a small amount of moist cake on it then remove it from the oven to cool). These muffins are best when baked so that the middle of the muffin is as moist as possible otherwise they tend to dry out.

Let the muffins cool; when the muffins are cool enough to handle, carefully remove them from the muffin pan.

Serve with plain or with softened butter.

This looks so delish!!! Yum!!! I’m gonna try bake this. I’m just curious, since it’s my first time in baking, I’d like to know what is the double acting baking powder? And also, if it’s not available, what can I substitute it with? thanks!

Hi Marion, double-acting baking powder is an ingredient that helps make baked goods rise. It’s located in the flour and sugar section of the grocery store and is generally available in “double-acting” as opposed to “single-acting”. For me the hardest part about baking powder is making sure that I don’t mix it up with “baking soda”. I always have to read the recipe over again and then look at the label closely to make sure I don’t mix them up. I’m not aware of a substitute for the double-acting baking powder so hopefully it’s available in the market that you shop at. I hope you enjoy these super delish muffins. Have a super great weekend!

These are fabulous. They would make the perfect breakfast.

Hi Kim, thank you!
